Why the Bible is not the Word of God (10 reasons)

 

Is the Bible really the Word of God?
In this video, I present 10 clear reasons—rooted in Scripture, history, and the teachings of Jesus—why the Bible should not be treated as an inerrant, infallible book. This is not a rejection of faith, but a call to honesty, truth, and a deeper commitment to the real Jesus beyond tradition.

The Letters of Paul is not the Word of God

In this video, we critically examine the apostle Paul’s influence on Christian doctrine—and question whether his gospel truly reflects the message of Jesus. Unlike the original apostles who lived and learned directly from Jesus, Paul had no such experience. He claimed divine revelation, yet his teachings diverge sharply from those of the historical Jesus.

Exploring the Claim: Jesus did Nothing in Secret

This video examines the popular assertion that Jesus taught openly and held no secrets, focusing on John 18:20—often cited in support of this claim. We take a closer look at the context and implications of the verse, inviting thoughtful reflection on the nature of his teachings.

Pentecost Never Happened—What Did Is Even More Powerful

Most Christians celebrate Pentecost as the explosive birth of the Church. But what if that moment never actually happened? In this video, we explore the gospel discrepancies around Jesus’ final instructions—and why the truth is even more beautiful. From Galilee to grassroots discipleship, discover how the real movement began with quiet obedience, not dramatic spectacle.


Why the 2nd donkey in Matthew matters

At first glance, the question of how many donkeys Jesus rode into Jerusalem might seem trivial—even silly. But this apparent contradiction between Matthew and the other Gospels opens a deeper conversation about how scripture is shaped, interpreted, and sometimes strained to fit theological agendas.


The Gospel writers didn’t know Jesus personally.

Their accounts reflect evolving traditions, theological agendas, and the voices of early Christian communities—not eyewitness memory. By thinking critically and studying the Bible with honesty, we can move closer to the historical Jesus and what he truly taught.

Why You Don’t Need to Submit to Your Husband

This video challenges the traditional Christian view of submission in marriage. We explore how Jesus elevated women, how biblical laws treated them as property, and why it’s time to rethink “biblical marriage” through a lens of spiritual equality and justice.

Thousands of Variants, One Question: What Did Jesus Really Say?

The New Testament manuscripts contain thousands of textual variants — some minor, others with profound theological implications. In this video, we explore how these differences can shape our understanding of what Jesus actually taught. Why didn’t God preserve the Gospels in their original form? What does that tell us about Scripture — and about God?


Jesus and the Law — What Did He Really Teach?

This video challenges traditional interpretations of Matthew 5:17 and explores what the historical Jesus actually taught about the Torah. Was he a defender of every law, or a radical voice calling for mercy, justice, and spiritual discernment? Dive into the Gospels — and beyond — to discover a message that transcends legalism and invites transformation.understanding of what Jesus actually taught. Why didn’t God preserve the Gospels in their original form? What does that tell us about Scripture — and about God?


The nativity story isn’t historical — and that’s okay

 For many people, questioning the Christmas story feels like an attack on faith, tradition, or even on Jesus himself. That’s not what this video is about. Jesus was a real historical person, and his teachings remain deeply meaningful and life-changing. But when we read the Bible carefully and honestly, it becomes clear that the birth narratives in Matthew and Luke were not written as modern historical reports.
